In the movie Stand and Deliver (which is based on a true story), students in an East LA neighborhood are motivated to unlock their potential when a new teacher challenges them. When two misfit teens from an under-privileged neighborhood in Cincinnati team together, they find a combined strength greater than either could have imagined in The Mighty.
